Comunication from Chief of the
Fire Department
October 24th, 1922.
Mr. O. E. Carr. City Manager.
Dubuque, Iowa.
Dear Sir:—
I have condemned the building at
the following location, subject to
your approval, because of conditions
which constitute a serious fire haz-
ard:
This building is located at 339
West Eighth street, owned by J. J.
Nagle, and occupied by the People's
Second Hand store, is a fire hazard
because of the following:
The foundation on the north side
of the building has fallen for a dis-
tance of about -2 feet, the remainder
of the foundation being in a weak-
ened condition. The floors and floor
joists on the main and second floors
are rotted and in an unsafe condi-
tion. The plaster is off the walls
and ceilings throughout the build-
ing and outer wall, or siding open
and generally dilapidated. The stair-
ways are weakened and unsafe, the
treads being worn and stringers
loosened from the walls. The base-
ment floor is congested with waste
matter and in an unsanitary condi-
tion. The building is an extreme fire
hazard in its present condition and
an exposure to adjoining property.
Awaiting your further instructions,
I am Respectfully yours,
J. W. FISHER,
Chief of Fire Department.
A Resolution
Whereas ,the building situated on

Department, and
Whereas, the Chief of the Fire
Department has found said build-
ing to be in a dangerous and hazard-
ous condition and a menace to pub-
lic life and property, and
Whereas, the Chief of the Fire
Department has reported the con•
ditions as existing, now therefore
Be it resolved by the City Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque that J. J.
Nagel, owner of the building on part

scribed building by the 6th day of
November, 1922, or to appear before
the City Council on the 6th day of

show reason if any there be why
said building should not be remov-
ed.

City Council.
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:—
At a meeting held by the City
Council on October 23rd the peti-
tion of P. McInerney for a seduction
of assessment for sewer on Pierce
street was referred to the City Man-
ager.
Mr. McInerney owns the follow-
ing property in Quigley's Sub. of
Out Lot No. 711:
Lot Assessed Sewer Assm't Reduc-
No• value Assm't rec. tion
5 100 $92.78 $37.50 $55.28
12 100 82.34 30.00 52.34
13 80 82.34 25.00 57.34
14 900 82.34 82.34 00.00
15 60 82.34 20.00 62.34
$422.14 $194.84 x227.30
I would respectfully recommend
that the assessments be reduced as
above shown. I also have a protest
from Phil Ryder, the owner of lots
7 and 8 of Quigley's Sub. of Out Lot
No. 711 assessed on the same im-
provement $92.78 each. I would rec-
ommend that the assescment on
these lots be fixed at $37.50 each
giving him a reduction of $110.56.
I would further recommend that
the City Auditor be instructed to
draw a warrant for $337.86 on the
Geneial fund in favor of the Special
Improvement Fund in order to make
up for these assessment reductions.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved and the City
Auditor be so instructed; seconded
by Councilman. Schrempf ; carried
by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior,
Schrempf.
Nays—None.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:—
At the Councilmeting of Oct. 23rd
the Quit Claim Deed of Henry
Young and his wife for a 15 -foot
strip off of the north side of lot 4 of
Sub. of Mineral lot 68, the same to
become a part of Solon Street, was
referred to the City Manager for re-
port. The part of Solon Street now
opened is 50 feet in width.
A strip 25 feet in width has been
set aside across from the Young
property for street purposes to be
dedicated as soon as Young would
give 25 feet off of his property. The
man having this property in control
states he is unwilling to deed it for
street purposes unless Young gives
25 feet.
Special Session, October 30th, 1922 575
My recimmendation is that this
deed be returned,to Mr. Young with.
the request that it be made for
twenty-five and not fifteen feet.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved and the deed
be returned to Mr. Young request-
ing him that it be made for 25 feet
and not. for 15 feet; seconded by
Councilman Schrempf; carried by
the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior,

('ity Council, Dubuque.
Gentlemen: At the meeting of
the City Council held on October 23,
remonstrances of N. Bl. Sutton and
:firs. Ellen McClain against the as-
sessments for the Hill Street im-
1,rovement were referred to the City
Manager for investigation and re-
port.
Mrs. \lcClain is the owner of Lot
No. 19, P. '1'. Wooten Addition. as-
sessed for the Hill Street improve-
ment $437.03, and valued for taxa-
tion at $320. In my judgment a fair
value of the lot is $1,000.00. A fair
assessment would then be $250.00, or
r reduction of $187.03.
Sutton owns Lot No. 4, Watter's
Add., assessed at $560. Street as-
:•essment of $325.18. I would recom-
mend that this lot be valued at
$1,100.00, and that the assessment
be made 5275.00, to corespond with
this value.
I would also recommend that the
City Auditor be requested to draw a
I‘ arrant on the General Fund in
fdvor of the special assessment
fund for $237.20 to make up for the
above suggested reductions.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Manager
he approved, the reductions as re-
commended be made and the City
Auditor be so instructed. Seconded
by Councilman Melchior. Carried

Communication of Myrtle A. West-

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:
Inasmuch as the city desires to
purchase a strip twenty-two feet in
width off the west side of lot 2 of
Mineral Lot 179 and inasmuch as I
own this property, I am making you
a price for this strip of ground need-
ed by the City in order to continue
Avoca Street to Willow Street as a
42 foot street.
My price is $500.00 for this strip
of ground and I will hold it for the
City until next May, making out a
deed any time the city notifies that
they are ready to pay for the same.
This strip of ground is 149.82 ft.
in depth and 22 ft. in width and
leaves me only 32 feet of ground on
which to build, thereby reducing the
value of my lot more than the actu-
al value of the property would be in
case my lot was wider.
Please advise as to the accept-
ance of my proposition.
Very truly yours,
Myrtle A. Westaby.
Dated November lst, 1922.
Councilman Brede moved that the
City Council accept the proposition
and that the Clerk be instructed to
notify Miss Westaby of the accept-
ance; seconded by Councilman Mel-

To lloHeileCoun-
cil f Honorable
Dubugta
Gentlemen:
In the year of 1891 an assessment
was levied by the City Council to
pay for the improvement of Grand-
view Avenue. In 1396 an action
brought by the property owners who
were assessed for the city improve-
ment to nave the assessment set
aside and declared null and void.
The District Court sustained the po-
sition of the plaintiffs in that action
and proceed-
ing withrned the the
collection from
tc
hetax.
There was an appeal to the Supreme
Court in this case and the decree
of the Lower Court was sustained.
Thereby the assessment was sup-
posed to have been cancelled against
the properties of the plaintiffs in
that action and the City enjoined
from proceeding further with the
collection of the tax. T. J. Donahue
was the owner of Lot One (1) of Min-
eral Lot Forty -Six (46), which lot
was assesed for the improvement
and he was one of the parties to
that action. It appears that the as-
sessment against his lot was never,
cancelled and I am advised that the
' gsent owner of the lot has been
notified to pay the assessment or the
property will be advertised for sale
at the coming tax sale. My purpose
in addressing this communication to
the Council is to advise you of the
facts, so that you may order this
assessment cancelled at this time
before any expense is attached to it
by way of advertising, etc. These
are the facts in the case as I have
them from the records on file with
the clerk of the District Court and
my recommendation is that you or-
der the Treasurer to cancel the as-
sessment against this lot and indi-
cate upon his records that the same
was enjoined by the Court in 1896.
Respectfuly submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Solicitor
be approved, and the Treasurer be
notified to cancel the assessment
against this lot. Seconded by Coun-
cilman Melchior. Carried by the
following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior and
Schrempf.
Nays—None.

Gentlemen:—
In accordance with your instruc-
tions bids were received at two
c'clock p. m. Monday, November

KirkwoodStreet lying west of Alta
Vista Street. The following bids
were received:
J.J. Leonard—earth, 55c per cu.
yd.

per cu. yd.
J. F. Lee Paving Co.—earth, 38c
per cu• yad; looso rock, $1.75 per cu,
yd.; solid rock, $3.00 per cu. yd.
Thomas Welsh—earth, 36c per cu,
yd.
Felix Becker, earth, 36c per cu. yd.
The Engineer's estimate is that
practically 1500 cubic yards of
earth will bo removed.
The bids as received from Felix
Becker and Thomas Welsh are both
low. I would recommend that a con-
tract be awrded to one or the other
of these men at once, in order that
the work may be finished before
freezing weather.

November, 6th, 1922.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:—
In connection with the improve-
ment of Main Street, which was
made in 1893, two pieces of property
belonging to J. H. Shields were as-
sessed for the improvement of this
street. One piece of property, the
Und. 1-2 of Lot 17, Block 1, was sold
to the city on Septmeber 2nd, 1921,
tax title sertiflcate being given to
the city for this property. The
amount of the delinquent tax was
$53.65 and $12.87 interest. The or-
iginal assessment for this improve-
ment was considerably more. Appar-
ently Mr. Shields paid what he felt
would have been due had one-quar-
ter of the intersection not been
charged to the corner lot.
At the same time an assessment
was levied against Mr. Shields for
the Und. 1-2 of Lot 1, Block 10,
which was handled in the same
way, Mr. Shields paying a portion of
the assessment. The balance $165.44
was not paid, neither has the prop-
erty been up for sale on account of
taxes.
On account of the age of these as •
-
sessments and also on account of
the fact that a considerable part of
the assessment was paid twenty-four
years ago and also in view of the
fact that the assessments on a num-
ber of other pieces of property, as-
sessed at the same time for the same
improvement, were afterwards set-
tled for a very nominal amount, I
would recommend the cancellation
of the certificates which the city now
holds on the Und. 1-2 of Lot 17 in
Block 1 and the cancellation of the
assessment now remaining unpaid
on the books against the Und 1-2 of
Lot 1, Block 10.
Respectfully submitted,
G. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Manager
be approved, the assessment be can-
celled and the City Treasurer be
so
instructed; seconded by
man
Gabriel; carried by the following
vote:

City Council,
Dubuque. Iowa.
Gentlemen:—
At a meeting of the City Council
on November 6th, 1922, a petition
signed by Wm. J. Connolly and Julia
Mosher, protesting against the as-
sessment against lots 4, 5, and 6
Connolly's Sub., which were assess-
ed for the sewer in Pierce street,
was referred to the City Manager
for investigation and report. I have
investigatied the matter and find as
follows:
Lots 4. 5 and 6 which were assess-
ed for the Pierce street sewer were
not previously assessed for any sew-
er. I also find that these lots are as-
sessed as follows on the City as-
sessor's books: Lot 4 is assessed
at $500.00; lot 5 at $400.00, and lot
6 at $400.00. The assessment for the
sewer against these lots is $82.34
for lots 4 and 5 and $60.94 for lot 6.
All of these assessments are way
under the one-quarter valuation of
the property as shown on the books
of the City Assessor. My recommend-
ation would ,therefore, be that the
petition be received and filed and
that Wm. J. Connolly be advised of
the disposition of the• petition.
Respectfully submitted,

November 8th, 1922.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
In 1919, a contract for a sewer in
Valeria Street was let to the Even-
Uhlrich-Stoner Company. The as-
sessment on account of this sewer
was levied sometime during the year
1920. Amcng the assessments was
one of $432.82, levied against Lot 6,
Brewery Add., which is handled by
W. 11. Meuser.
Under date of December 31st,
1920, I reported to the City Council
that this property was assessed for
51,000, and recommended that the
assessment as levied be reduced to
S250.00 from $432.82. This recom-
mendation was accepted by the
Council.
On further investigation, 1 find
that Lot 6, Brewery Add., is a very
large lot, containing nearly one acre
of ground, and there is only a small
part of this lot which abutts Va-
leria Street. The value of that part
of the lot which could be served by
the sewer is probably not over
$325.00. I IA oultl therefore suggest a
further reduction of this assessment
from the amount as fixed by the
Council in December, 1920, to $51.25,
which is probably one-quarter of the
fair valve of that part of this lot
which can be served by the Valeria
Street sewer.
Respectfuly submitted,
0. E. CARR,
City Manager.

Petition for vacation of Alley, pre-

To the Honorable City Manager and
City Council of the City of Du-

Gentlemen:—
The undersigned, the Archdiocese
of the City of Dubuque and William
P. Slattery Estate, being owners of
all of the property adjoining the al-
ley between Alta Vista street and
Nevada street, and running in an
Easterly and Westerly direction
from Martha Ansi street to Julien

alley, while it was originally laid
out and dedicated and platted as a
part of Levan's Add., to Dubuque, as
shown by the plat recorded in Book
Q, pages 338 and 339, has never
been used between Martha Ann
street and Julien Avenue, and is not
cpened up.
The plans have been prepared for
the erection of a new church and
school building upon that part of the
ground owned by the Archdiocese of
Dubuque, covering ground on both
sides of said alley, and that itis not
feasible or practical to build such a
church or school- building without
the vacation of said alley, and the
placing the title thereto in the ad-
joining property owners.
That said alley has never been us-
ed, with the exception of a small
portion thereof, which was used by
the Wm. P. Slattery Estate, as an
entrance to the Slattery property.
That the same was elevated about
12 to 15 feet above the adjoining
streets, and the same was practic-
ally of no use to the City or to the
inhabitants thereof.
That the Slattery Estate is the
owner of lot one (1) of the Sub. of
Mineral lot (174) and of (2) of
Marsh's Dubuque, both of which
border on the said alley, and that
property, together with lots (1),
(1A), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7),
(8) and (15) in Levan's Addition of
Dubuque, is all the property border-
ing or abutting upon said alley.
That the undersigned owners of
all the adjoining and abutting prop-
erty, therefore, respectfully request
that said alley be vacated, and the
title be placed in the property own-
ers abutiing said alley.
Signed at Dubuque, Iowa, this
23rd day of November, A. D., 1922.

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In connection with the
assessment against the abutting
property owner for the improvement
of Shims avenue, I beg to advise
that there .vas an error made in the
levy against Grace Papin owner of
lot 199 Julien Addition. She agreed
to pay $50.00 toward the cost of the
improvement instead of 50c per front
foot. The amount of the levy is
$55.41 and should therefore be re-
duced. A reduction of $5.41 on this
assessment against Grace Papin
should be made.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved and Mrs. Pap-
in's assessment be reduced to $50.00.
Seconded by Councilman Melchior.

City Council,

Gentlemen: In connection with
the acquiring of property necessary
for the Rockdale Road as relocated,
between Rowan Street and Locust
Street, I beg to advise as follows:
The city will need a part of Lots 1
and 2 and Lots 16, 19, 20, 21 and 22
in Randall's Sub. for this street.
These lots are assessed for $50.00
for No. 1 and 2 and $40.00 each for
the others. They contain somewhere
near 5,000 sq. ft. each. J. J. Nagle
the owner, offers to sell the entire
lots to the city for $100.00 each.
J. J. Nagle also owns Lot 1 of
Sub. of 1 of Min. Lot 37. The pro-
posed street passes through about
the middle of this lot. The lot con-
tains about one and one-third acres.
J. J. Nagle offers to sell this lot
to the city for the sum of $300.00.
I would recommend the purchase
of these eight lots at the prices as
named.
Very truly yours,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.

recommendation of the City Manager

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowr..
Gentlemen: I beg to advise that
I have secured propositions from A.
A. Cooper, the owner of Lot 1 of
Min. Lot 364 and Lot 2 of Min. Lot
36A for the sale of such property
as will be required for the Rockdale
Road as relocated. Mr. Cooper agrees
to sell this property to the city for
the suns of $200.00.
I have also secured a proposition
from Mrs. Elizabeth Duggan, the
Duggan, the owner of the east 40
ft. of Lot 1 and the west 10 ft. of
Lot 2 and the east one-half of Lot
3 in Newman's Sub., to sell to the
city such portions of these three
lots as is needed for the right cf way
on the Rockdale Road as relocated,
for the sum of $75.00.
I think both of these prices are
reasonable and I would recommend
the acceptance of these propositions
by the city.
Respectfully submitted,

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In the delinquent tax-
es as advertised on December 4th,
1922, appears the property bought on
June 20th, 1921 by the City of Du-
buque for the building of the fire
alarm station. This property is as-
sessed to Ida Dement and was adver-
tised for sale on December 4th.
As I recall it, attention of the
assessor was called to the fact that
the city had purchased this ground
at the time the purchase was made
and that the property should be ex-
empt _from taxes. I then suggested
that the city clerk be directed to
advise the county auditor and county
treasurer that this was city property,
having been purchased in June 1921.
Therefore the 1921 taxes should be
cancelled.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
County Auditor and Treasurer be
notified to cancel the assessment
against this property and take it off
of their tax books, also that the
Clerk be instructed to prepare a
list of all the property purchased by
the City during the year and in-
struct the County Auditor and Treas-
urer to take it off of the tax list.
Seconded by Councilman Gabriel.

City Council,
i Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: Sometime ago the
matter of a petition for permission
to erect a garage on the end of Al-
mon Street as presented by Mr.
Hoeksma was referred to the City
Manager for investigation and re-
port.
I have investigated this matter and
personally see nothing objectionable
in the placing of additional garages
at the end of this street.
Mr. James Lee, who lives on Al-
mond Street, and who already has
two garages at the end of this street,
same being erected by him without
permission from the city, does ob-
ject to any additional garages be
erected and states that rather than
see any more garages erected here,
he will move his garages off the
street.
I would recommend that the Coun-
cil direct Mr. Lee to remove his two
garages from the end of Almond
Street, same to be done within thirty
days. If he should fail to remove
his garages within that time then
permission should be given to Mr.
Hoeksma to erect a garage on this
street and to pay a small fee for the
privilege, the same fee to be charged
to Mr. Lee providing he permits his
garages to remain in the same loca-
tion.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Melchior moved that
the recommendation of the City
Manager be approved and Mr. Lee
be notified of the Council's action.

Gentlemer.: Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Boyer are the owners of Lots 1, 2,
3, and 4 in O'Connor's Sub. These
lots give about 210 feet along the
center line of Rockdale Road as re-
located. Mr. and Mrs. Boyer agree
to sell the amount of these lots
which is required for the street as
well as the parts of these lots south
of the road as now located, for the
sum of $400.00. This property has
a depth south of the road, varying
from 185 to 145 feet and I believe
from the elevation shown on our
plans, will be fairly satisfactory for
building lots after the road is con-
structed.
I would therefore recommend the

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The Rockdale Road
as re -located will cross Lot No. 2
of Sub. of Mineral Lot No. 37. This
is the lot where the old brick house
is on the hillside. It belongs to
Frank Bakey. Mr. Bakey prefers to
sell the entire lot rather than Just
the right of way and offers to sell
the entire for the sum of $300.00.
This lot contains about 2-3 of an
area of Lot No. 1 which we pur-
chased from Mr. Nagle for $300.00,
but contains the foundation of the
old brick building which Mr. Bakey
holds to be of some value to him.
I think this is a fair price and I
would recommend the purchase from
Mr. Bakey at the price as above
mentioned.
Respectfully submitted,

City Manager.

City Council,

Gentlemen: I have secured tent-
atively from the owners of property
along the Rockdale Road as relocat-
ed, prices for the amount required
for street purposes.
Thomas J. Mulgrew agrees to sell
the ground necessary for the road
as relocated, coming from Lot 1 of
1 of Min. Lot 50A and Lot 2 of 1 of
Min. lot 50A approximately one
acre, at the rate of $600.00 per acre.
Mr. Mulgrew paid $500.00 per acre
for this ground a couple of years
ago.
Mrs. Mary Crowley, the owner of
the West 1/2 of Lot 4, Lot 5 and Lot
6 in Newman's Sub., agrees to sell
the ground necessary for the oRck-
dale Road as relocated, for the sum
of $100.00.
M. B. Sheehan, the owner of Lot
6 in O'Connor's Sub., agrees to give
the city, such part of this lot as is
required for the Rockdale Road as
relocated, approximately 7,200 sq. ft.
for the sum of $75.00, provided oth-
er property owners whose property
is similarily located in this subdivis-
ion, settle on a similar basis.
I believe all of these offers to be
fair and recommend their acceptance
by the city.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Counciman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Man-
ager be approved, the above offers be

December 6th, 1922.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The laws of the State
of Iowa, fix definitely the amount
of pension to be paid to members
of the fire department on retirement
or the dependent members of their
families in case of their death.
The state also directs that a tax
levy not to exceed one mill on the
taxable property in the city, may be
levied to take care of this pension.
I beg to advise that in both 1921
and in 1922 the city of Dubuque lev-
ied the entire amount authorized by
statute for this purpose. We found
on the first of December only a very
small balance with which to meet
the November fire pension payroll.
There will be between now and April
lst, a deficit of approximately $4,400
in the fire pension fund. The laws
will not permit this fund to be over-
Special Session, December 7th, 1922
625
drawn, neither with the law permit
an increased tax levy for this pur-
pose.
In my judgement there are two
possible solutions to this matter,
both of which are objectionable. First
—the city may defer payment on
these pension payrolls until such a
time as there are moneys in the fire
pension fund. Second—in case there
was an unappropriated balance in
the Miscellaneous Revenues an
amount sufficient to take care of this
probable deficit, such amount could
be appropriated from the Miscellan-
eous Revenues, or in line with this
second suggestion, the Council could
appropriate the money from Miscel-
laneous Revenues, provided that
there was money available from this
source, month by month to meet the
fire pension payrolls.
I a mcalling this to your atten-
tion in order that you may determine
the proper proceedure as we are un-
able to pay further fire pensions un-
til the additional money from some
source is placed in this fund.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
Auditor be authorized to transfer
$2,200.00 from the Miscellaneous
Revenues to the Fire Pension Fund.

A communication fro the League
of Iowa Municipalities, presented.
Marshalltown, Iowa, Dec. lst, 1922.
To the Honorable May and City
Council:
The coming session of the Legis-
lature is of the greatest importance
to cities and towns of Iowa. The
control of public utilities, changes
in the tax laws and many other ques-
tions of vital interest to every mun-
icipality will come up for action. It
will be our fault if bad laws are
passed on account of our neglect in
this important matter.
The utilities and every other spec-
ial interest will have representatives
in Des Moines to look after their
welfare and if we do not do like-
wise we will certainly be the losers.
We owe it to our people to look
after their affairs.
The officers of the League and Leg-
islative Committee arranged with
Hon. W. A. Hunt, City Solicitor of
Ottaumwa and Chairman of the Leg-
islative Committee to take chage of
the legislative work, and we are sure
that he will do it in a most efficient
manner. There is no question but
what you can legally employ Mr.
Hunt to do this work for you.
It every city of town, whether a
member of the League or not, will
do its share, the payment of each
will be small. We estimate that if
every municipality will pay for this
wr.rk, one-half ti.E irilual dues in the
league, that it will create a fund, suf-
ficient for the purpose.
We have asked Secretary Pierce
to act as Treasurer of this special
fund and the warrant or draft should
be sent to him.
We are confident of your co-oper-
ation and therefore enclose you a
resolution that we ask you to pass
at your first meeting. Fill in the
amount according to your population,
pass the resolution and send in the
amount at once in order that we may
know what we can depend on.
Yours respectfully,
Signed: R. S. McNutt, President
A. O. Scott, Vice -President
Also by Trustees and members of
the Legislative Committee.
A Resolution.
Whereas, it is vitally important
that the interests of the cities and
towns shorld be carefully looked af-
ter before the legislature, and
Whereas, by co-operation, it is pos-
sible to employ Hon. W. A. Hunt, of
Ottumwa, to look after legislature
matters for us for a nominal fee,
therefore
Be it resolved:
That we employ Hon. W. A. Hunt
to look a''.ter our interests in the
legislature, for the sum of twenty-
five dollars, ($25.00), and that the
Clerk be authorized and instructed
to send a warrant for that amount
to Frank G. Pierce, Marshalltown,
Iowa, the Treasurer of this special
fund.

December 5th, 1922.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At the Council meet-
ing held on the 29th of November
a petition signed by Geo. Korman,
asking for a reduction of the assess-
626 Special Session, December 7th, 1922
ment as levied against lots 13 and
14 Voelker's Add., for the improve-
ment of Rosalin Street was referred
to the City Manager for investiga-
tion and report. I have investigated
the matter and find as follows:
A petition was presented to the
City Council on March 20th, 1919,
signed by Geo. L. Korman and others,
asking for the improvement of this
street. In accordance with the no-
tice of the petition, the Council pro-
ceeded with the improvement of the
street. The assessment was levied
on December 4th, 1919. Lot 13 was
assessed for $174.69 and Lot 14 was
assessed $171.43. Two payments
were made by MrM .Korman on these
assessments. The last payment w'ts
made on November 1st, 1920.
These two lots are carried on the
assessor's books under one valua-
tion, which is $1,800. There is a
house on lot 13 and on lot 14 there is
a garage. Each of these lots have
a fifty foot frontage on Rosalin
Street and a depth of approximately
one hundred twenty feet.
From the records, it appears that
the Mr. Korman was the main insti-
gator of the improvement. It also
appears that the assessment as lev-
ied is within 25 % of the value of
either of these lots. This assessment
was permitted to become delinquent
and the property was advertised for
sale and was bought by the City of
Dubuque on Monday, December 4th.
I would suggest that the petition be
received and filed.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.

clude two compressors with pumping
devices for artesian wells, two boil-
ers with automatic stokers, one ad-
ditional pump together with the in-
stallation of venturia meters and pip-

This property is assessed to Roy
Houpes and is held by real estate
contract by Geo. D. Cable.. Cable
offers to sell such portions of these
two lots as the city will need for
street purposes for the sum of $75.00.
Geo. D. Cable also owns lot 5 of
Rowan's Addition. Rockdale Road
crosses this lot taking nearly one-

City Council,

Gentlemen: Sometime ago the
special assessment for the improve-
ment of Shiras Street was, levied.
Mr. C. Braun was assessed $247.50.
This was arrived at on the basis of
fifty cents per foot, which Mr. Braun
agreed to pay. This was taken from
the recorded plat. By actual meas-
urement we find the plat to be one
hundred thirty-nine feet in error. For
that reason the special assessment
against Mr. Braun should be reduced
by the amount of $69.50. I would
recommend that Mr. Braun's assess-
ment be reduced $69.50 and that the
City Auditor be authorized to trans-
fer to the special assessment fund
$69.50 from the general fund to make
up for this reduction.
Respectfully submitted,

Mr. and Mrs. Dillon agree to let
the city have the part of their lot
the sum of $75.00.
Mr. Isaac Wyburn is the owner of
Lot 47 of the Sub. of Min. Lot 39.
The Rockdale Road as relocated

considerably 'over one-half of the
area of the lot, the center of the road

burn's house. Mr. Wyburn has his
house, some out buildings, a well as
well as a garden on this lot.
Mr. Wyburn is glad to co-operate
with the city in the location of this
road and will permit the moving of
his house to some other location.
Tentatively, he has agreed to take
lots 7 and 8 and 17 and a part of
lot 16 not used by the city, in ex-
change for the part of lot 47 which
the city needs for this road. In ad-
dition, the city is to allow him the

expense of moving his house from its
present location to either lot 7 or
8, to connect with the water main
on Southern avenue and extend such
connection to his house and also pay
the cost of placing foundation walls
under the house, sufficient to permit
of a basement.
Mr. J. J Nagle is the owner of
Lot 7 and 8 and 17 in Randall's Sub.
He offers to sell these three lots to
the city for the suns of $300.00. I

would recommend the acceptance of
his proposition as well as the prop-

catine Street, Harlan Street, Greeley

and King Street. I beg to advise that
this contract has been completed and
seems to be in satisfactory condi-

mend the acceptance of this work by

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
At the last meeting of the City
Council, I recommended the pur-
chase of such a part of Lot No. 4 of
O'Connor's Sub. owned by Chas.
Dillon, necessary for street purpos-
es, for the sum of $75.00.
Mrs. Dillon has changed her mind
about her desire to retain the por-
tion of this lot lying south of the
road. This runs back for about 150
feet from th eroad. She offers to sell
this to the city at the same price as
was authorized for the right of way.
The city owns the lots on the east
but does not own the lot on the west
of the Dillon property. I think prob-
ably it might be desirable to acquire
this property at the price named. I
do not wish however, to make any
definite recommendation on this
proposition.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that the
offer of Mrs. Dillon be accepted and
the City Manager be authorized to
purchase the above described prop-
erty; seconded by Councilman

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
At the last meeting of the Council
I reported that we were unable to
come to an agreement with Mr. W.
'W. Bandy as to a fair value for the
portion of his property which is need-
ed for the Rockdale Road as re-
located. The road takes approximate-
ly fifty feet off his lots. The proper-
ty consists of the Nest 10 feet of
Lot No. 1 and the East 40 feet of
Lot No. 2 in Newnian's Sub. I beg
to advise that Mr. Bandy has offer-
ed to let the city have this property
for the sum of $100.00. This is a lit-
tle higher than we have paid for oth-
er property, Mr. Bandy claims some
damage to his house on account of
the road crossing his lot. In view
of that fact, I believe it would prob-
ably be the best policy to purchase
the property at the price named than
to go to the expense of condemna-
tion. I therefore recommend that
the City Auditor be directed to draw
up a warrant in favor of Mr. Bandy
in the sum of $100.00 after proper
deed and abstract has been approved
by the City Solicitor.
This completes all the property to
be acquired for the Right of Way
for the Rockdale Road as relocated.
The distance is slightly over a mile.
The road is to be one hundred feet
wide. The city has in many cases se-
cured property on either side of the
road as well as the portion neces-
sary for the road itself. The entire
expense when passed upon, the pay-
ment of warrants to the jury and the
agreements in other cases, will
amount to approximately $10,000.00.
Respectfully submitted,
G. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the recommendation of the City Man-
ager he approved, the above de-
scribed property be purchased from
Mr. .1. W. Bandy and the Auditor be
authorized to draw a warrant in fa-
vor of A. W. Bandy in the sum of
$100.00 to pay for same, upon receipt
of deed and abstract properly exe-

Iowa.
To the Honorable Mayor and Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen: Whereas it is a mat-
ter of common knowledge that the
present City Water Works is wholly
inadequate to take care of the needs
of the community and provide suf-
ficient fire protection for its citizens,
clue to the fact that machinery and
buildings are in need of repair and
replacement, and extensions and im-
provements are demanded every-
where throughout the city, and
Whereas, there are not sufficient
funds available with which to make
such necessary improvements, and
Whereas, it has been ascertained
that such water works are necessary
improvements cannot be erected, ex-
tended, Maintained, operated, built
and furnished within the limit of one
and one-quarter per centum of the
actual value of the taxable property
of the City of Dubuque, as deter-
mined from the last state and coun-
ty tax lists previous to the incurring
of proposed indebtedness, now there-
fore,
The undersigned, being resident
qualified electors of the City of Du-
buque, Iowa, do hereby petition your
Honorable Body to call a special
election for the purposes of issuing
bonds in a sum not to exceed $325,-
000.00 to pay for the maintaining,
erection, extending, operating, build-
ing and furnishing the Water Works
of the City of Dubuque, Iowa, at
which time the question to be voted
upon which shall be submitted to
the electors of said City shall be as
provided by Section 1306-d of the
Supplement to the Code of Iowa,
1913, as amended.
The petition oeing in regular form
and containing the necessary num-
ber of names, Councilman Brede
moved that it be received and made
a matter of record. Seconded by
Councilman Schrempf. Carried by
the following vote:
Yeas — Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Absent — Councilmen Gabriel,
Melchior.
Resolution providing for a Special
Election to vote upon the question
of the issuance of bonds for Water
Works purposes:
Whereas, a petition has been pre-
sented to the City Council, signed
by a sufficient number of qualified
electors of the City of Dubuque, ask-
ing the City Council of said City to
call an election for the purpose of
issuing bonds in the sum of not to
exceed $325,000.00, said money to be
used for the purpose of erecting, ex-
tending, maintaining, operating,
building and furnishing the Water
Works of the City of Dubuque, and
stating that the necessary improve-
ments cannot be built, erected, furn-
ished, extended, maintained, or oper-
ated within the limit of one and one-
fourth (11/4) per centum of the ac-
tual value of the taxable property of
said City; and
Whereas, it has been found by the
City Council that said petition com-
plies with the law as contained in
Section 1306-c of the Supplement to
the Code, 1913, and that pursuant
thereto it becomes the duty of the
Council to call said election; and
Whereas, this meeting is the next
regular meeting of the City Council
of said City following the filing of
said petition; now therefore
Be it resolved by the City Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque that a
special election be called for Mon-

The following resolution was pre-
sented, and adopted:
Resolution.
Whereas, the whole of City Lot
587 appears to have been assessed
to pay for the construction of a
sewer in the alley adjacent to said
lot, although said lot has been sub-
divided and portions thereof owned
by different people, and upon tax
sale said entire lot was sold to pay
for the delinquent assessment, and
the City of Dubuque is the owner of
the tax certificates; and
Whereas, said assessment was er-
roneous in that the southerly twenty-
four (24) feet of the northerly forty-
eight (48) feet of the westerly one-
half (1) of said lot should not have
been included within said assess-
ment, and was in no manner access-
ible for said improvement or liable
to pay for the same; and
Whereas, in order to remove the
cloud upon the title to said portion
of said lot as herein described, it is
necessary that said described por-
tion of said lot be relevied from said
assessment and the apparent lien
therefor be removed; now therefor
Be it resolved by the City Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque that the
southerly twenty-four (24) feet of
the northerly forty-eight (48) feet of
the westerly one-half (1/2) of City
Lot 587 be and the same is hereby
relieved from any lien or cloud
caused by the fact that a special
assessment appears to have been
levied against said real estate to pay
for the cost of constructing a sewer
in the alley adjacent thereto, and
that, in so far as said real estate is
concerned that the assessment by
and the same is hereby cancelled.
Be it further resolved that the
City Treasurer indicate upon his
records the cancellation of said as-
sessment as provided for by this
resolution.
Passed and adopted this 2nd day
of January, 1923.

The Honorable Mayor and Council of
the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: The petition of Ed-
mund A. Linehan requesting the re-
turn to him of a certified check of
$350.00, which was declared forfeit-
ed by the City, was referred to me
for an opinion.
This check was put up by the con-
tractor as a part of his bid and pur-
suant to the notice to contractors
which was published prior to the let-
ting of this work. The language of
the notice stated that the purpose
of the check was to be "A guar-
antee that a contract will be entered
into as awarded" to the bidder. In
this case no contract was awarded to
Mr. Linehan. Some claim was made
by him that an error was made in
figuring the amount of his bid and
he requested that he be permitted
to withdraw his bid or that the state-
ment be considered in letting this
contract. It seems to me that in
view of that fact the condition pro-
vided for in the notice to contract-
ors was not fulfilled, to the extent
of letting the contract to him. If
the contract had been let to him and
he had not signed it, then his check
might rightfully have been forfeited,
but this was not done and I do not
believe that the forfeiture of his
check was justified under the cir-
cumstances. I therefore recommend
that a warrant be drawn upon the
general fund in his favor in the
sum of $350.00 covering the amount
of his certified check.
Respectfully submitted.
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the recommendation of the City So-
licitor be approved and carried out.
Seconded by Councilman Brede.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas — Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Absent—Councilman Melchior.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Dfibuque.
Gentlemen: I am now erecting a
two-story brick store and flat at the
corner of 30th and Jackson streets,
and desire permission to build four
steps from the structure to the in-
side edge of the sidewalk.
Councilman Brede moved that the
prayer of the petition be granted,
with the understanding that Mr.
Cartigny signs a waiver prepared by
the City Solicitor to protect the City.
Seconded by Councilman Schrempf.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas — Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Schrempf.

Petition of Mary J. Simplot pre-
sented, asking that the City Council
instruct the Citizens Tax Investment
Corporation to get a refund from the
County Treasurer for the amount
paid by them at the tax sales for
the 1920 and 1921 tax against the
undivided one-third of Lot 139, Fin-
ley Add., stating that she is a widow
of a Civil War veteran and is there-
for entitled to tax exemption on the
above property.
Councilman Brede moved that the
petition be referred to the City So-
licitor. Seconded by Councilman Ga-
briel. Carried by the following
vote:
Yeas — Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Absent—Councilman Melchior.
The City Manager, to whom was
referred the matter of the A. W.
Kemler Estate, relative to a special
assessment (delinquent), reported
verbally that he had investigated
and finds as follows: That the as-
sessment was levied on October 11,
1909, for the construction of a curb
and gutter in front ofand adjoining
Lot 2 of 19 on Julien avenue and
does not see any reason why this
assessment should not be paid.
Councilman Brede moved that
Miss Julia Kemler, agent for the A.
W. Kemler Estate, be allowed to pay
the original assessment with accum-
ulated interest and costs, less the
8 per cent penalty, upon the pay-
ment of which the tax sale certif-
icate be cancelled. Seconded by
Councilman Gabriel. Carried by the
following vote:

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: In accordance with
your directions, bids were received
at 2:00 o'clock Friday, January 5th,
1923, for the $100,000.00 41/2 per cent
Sewer Bonds. These bonds mature
$25,000.00 each year from 1939 to
1942 inclusive. The following bids
in addition to par and accrued in-
terest were received for these bonds.
Federal Securities Corpora-
tion, Chicago, Iii. $2,400.00
Blodget & Co., Chicago, Ill2,395.00
Ames, Emerich & Co., Chi-
cago, Ill. 1,630.00
A. B. Leach & Co., Chicago,
Ill. 1,715.00
Bonbright & Co., Chicago,
Ill. 1,780.00
Geo. M. Bechtel & Co., Da-
venport, Ia. 1,790.00
Curtis & Sanger Co., Chi-
cago, Ill., 1,632.50
Langport, Parker & Jen-
nings, New York City 1,041.00
Merrill, Lynch & Co., New
York City 1,258.00
Schanke & Co., Minneapolis,
Minn. 1,760.00
In addition to the above mention-
ed, the following companies had
representatives present prepared to
give oral bids. Their limit, however,
was passed before their opportunity
came to bid: National City Co., Chi-
cago, Ill.; Second Ward Securities
Co., Milwaukee, Wis.; White -Philips
Co., Davenport, Iowa; Grahani-
Schulte Co., Waterloo, Iowa. The
last named company offered a prem-
ium of $2,700.00 provided these
bonds were made payable in New
York City. On the present charge of
banks for handling payments, the
cost to the City for New York pay-
ments would be in the neighborhood
of $460.00, an additional charge of
something like $70.00 for printing to-
gether with the delay incident to re-
passing the legislation authorizing
the issue of bonds would be neces-
sary.
I would therefore recommend the
sale of this issue of bonds to the
Federal Securities Corporation, Chi-
cago, Ill., at their price as bid, name-
ly, par and accrued interest plus a
premium of $2,400.00.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,

To the Honorable City Manager,
Mayor and City Council:
Gentlemen: Your petitioners state
that some months ago they signed
and presented a petition for the im-
provements of Langworthy avenue
from Booth to College streets Col-
lege avenue from Langworthy ave-
nue to West Third street, Douglas
street (formerly West Second street)
and Walsh street. That the peti-
tioners notice by the publication of
the resolution of necessity, that
Douglas street and Walsh street
have been omitted from the resolu-
tion, and your petitioners are calling
Special Session, January 13th, 1923
your attention to the fact that these
two streets are included in the peti-
tion, that the north side of Douglas
street is largely built up and the
south side is fronted by the new
addition, "Sunny Side", which is ra-
pidly building, and that the improve-
ments so far included in the reso-
lutions of necessity would leave the
abutters on Douglas street and the
new lots in "Sunny Side" without an
improved street, and provide of no
way of getting in and out except to
drive in and turn around to get out
of the new district, without going
over unimproved streets. Wherefor
your petitioners ask that Douglas
and Walsh streets be included in the
improvements to be let soon, and
that the work all go on together for
the above reason and for the further
reason that there will be a saving
in the matter of grading by doing
the work all at one time.

To the Honorable City Manager,
Mayor and City Council of the
City of Dubuque.
We, the undersigned residents liv-
ing in the vicinity of the Jackson
School, petition your Honorable
Body to arrange a skating rink for
the children of said neighborhood,
on the lots directly west of the
Hodgden avenue cement walk. There
is a low place there that can be

dren, to have this flooded for skat-

Petition of Frank and Fred Bell
presented, asking the City Council
to reconsider their action relative to
a stairway in the back of the Bell
Building. on 13th and Central ave-
nue, stating that if they will be com-
pelled to put an iron stairway there
it would cost in the neighborhood of
$400.00 and a wooden stairway
would cost about $60.00, that they
are not getting very much rent for
the flats in said building, not having
rais,d it as other landlords have
done, and if the Council insists on
the construction of an iron stairway
they would have to raise the rent
and it would work a hardship on the
tenants. Furthermore the stairway
is used only for carrying wood and
.coal to the occupants in the building
and a wooden stairway would do
just as well. Councilman Gabriel
moved that the prayer of the peti-
tion be granted and they be allowed
to construct a wooden stairway.

Petition of Retail Druggists pre-
sented.
January 12th, 1923.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: You are no doubt
aware that there are individuals,
some working alone and some as
representatives of outside firms,
whose business it is to sell drugs
and medicines by house to house
canvass. This practice is, in the
first place, unfair to established lo-
cal dealers, who pay taxes and who
are required to be registered phar-
macists. Secondly, there is a ques-
tion as to quality in some cases of
the merchandise offered. The Retail
Druggists of Dubuque would appre-
elate any action taken by your body
that will eliminate or license this
practice.
Yours very truly,
RETAIL DRI'(1GISTS'
SUB-BTTREAIT.

City- Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: Last spring the mat-
ter of the maintenance of a play-
ground was discussed and unoffic-
ially I was authorized to spend not
to exceed $1,700.00 of the city funds
for this purpose. I beg to• advise
that we actually spent $.1,703.37. I
believe the hills are all in and paid.
I would therefore ask that the sum
of $1,703.37 be appropriated from the
consolidated or general fund to the
playground.
Respectfully submitted.
0. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the request of the City Manager be
complied with and the City Auditor
be instructed to transfer $1,703.37
from the General Fund to the Play

January 13th, 1923.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The City Solicitor ad-
vises that the jury has given a ver-
dict in favor of Theresa Jubser
against the City of Dubuque on ac-
count of personal injury claim on
account of falling on the walk on
January 31, 1921. The amount of
the award is $1,500.00. The evidence
as I understand it shows that the
walk was clean the day of .Tanuary
31st, 1921, that during the day water
dripped from the overhanging bay
window onto the sidewalk and froze
in the evening, and it was on this icy
place that Theresa Jubser slipped
and fell.
Also on December 20th, 1920, Mrs.
Houston fell on Main street on ac-
count of ice forming from water
dripping from an overhanging hay
10 Special Session, January 13th, 1923
window. This case was settled for
.$3,000.00. The City at that time not
being able to prove that the walk
was entirely free from ice the day
previous.
In view of these constantly re-
curring causes of injury and the lia-
bility on the part of the City of Du-
buque, where a property owner shall
have so improved his property as to
throw additional responsibility on
the part of the City, I would recom-
mend that the City require either
the removal of all walks, platforms
or bay windows which hang over the
sidewalk along any street in the
City within thirty days or that the
owner of any property which has a
bay window, sidewalk or platform
overhanging the sidewalk be re-
quired to file and maintain a surety
bond in amount of $5,000.00 as a
guarantee that they will assume the
responsibility for any bad condition
of the walk due to such overhanging
structure.
The City was indeed lenient in
permitting the construction of any
of the above structures and was then
permitted simply to accommodate
the owner and enable him to build
on his property to better advantage.
It is manifestly unfair for the City
to constantly be put to expense on
account of personal injury claims
arising from these structures which
were put in solely for the benefit of
the individual improving his prop-
erty. It is on this account that I
would recommend that the owner of
the property be made to assume this
responsibility and liability.
Respectfully submitted.

City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
this matter be referred to the City
Solicitor for legal opinion thereon.

Petition of the Dubuque Motor
Boat Club, Feb. 1, 1923:
To the Honorable City Council of
the City of Dubuque:
The undersigned Club begs to call
attention to the fact that in the con-
struction of the sewer in the vici-
nity of the boat harbor, Dubuque,
the City has removed the trees,
posts, etc., around said harbor,
which said trees had been used
for years by harbor tenants as an-
choring places to which to secure
their boats and boat -houses. These
boats and boat -houses are now held
fast by the ice, but when the ice
melts the owners will be deprived
of any means of fastening their
boats. Wherefore your Honorable
Body is respectfully requested to
take the necessary action to pro-
vide such facilities at the harbor
which will enable boat owners to
safeguard their property.
Respectfully submitted,
DUBUQUE MOTOR BOAT CLUB.

ed the Council relative to the peti-
tion, and also stated that there
should be street lights there, as
thieves enter the boat -houses under
cover of darkness and rob them.
Councilman Brede moved that the
petition be referred to the City En-
gineer to work out a plan whereby
the boats and boat -houses may be
anchored. Seconded by Councilman

dressed the Council in behalf of

and that it would work a hardship
on the company to improve the
street at this time. They asked
the Council to postpone this im-
provement for at least one year,
No action taken.

February 5th, 1923.
City Council, Dubuque, Iowa:
Gentlemen: During the summer
of 1921 the building located at the
corner of Sixth and Main streets,
at that time owned by the Weigel
Estate, was inspected by the fire
chief, who found it to be unsafe.
The required notice was served on
the representative of the owner of
the building to show cause why the
same should not be removed. The
result of the notice was that the
owners were asked to make the
necessary repairs. An estimate of
the cost of these repairs was made
by Albert Ney and were found to
be, as I recall it, in the neighbor-
hood of $10,000.00. The building
was later sold to the Dubuque Na-
tional Bank, which company asked
to make minor repairs to permit the
temporary use of the building until
the fall of 1922, when the same
would be removed to make way for
a new bank building. This company
later, through consolidation, no
longer needed the building and sold
it to J. J. Nagle. So far as the city
is concerned, matters stand now the
same as they did in the summer of
1921. Temporary repairs were made
to permit the use of the building up
to last fall. The matter of repairs
or a sanction on the further use of
the building in its present condi-
tion has not even been sought by
the owner. I ani calling this mat-
ter to the attention of the Council
in order that they may take what-
ever action to them seems right and
proper in this connection.
Also the building owned by J. H.
Rhomberg, located right next to the
corner of Ninth and Central, for-
merly occupied by the Boiler Works,
was condemned by the fire chief in
1921. Notice was served on the
owner to show cause why the sante
should not be removed. The owner
asked for time until December 1st,
1921, to remove the building. I beg
to advise that the same has not
been removed and is more or less
a menace to the neighborhood.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR, City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
communication be referred to the
City Solicitor, to prepare the proper
resolutions for the condemnation of
the above properties; seconded by
Councilman Gabriel.
Carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior,
Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Petition of the Voelker Realty Co.
We find the following special as-
sessment levied against Lot 16,
Grandview Heights Addition: For
the improvement of Grandview,
levied Jan. 4th, 1912, $274.48; there
was a sale on this to the City dated
Sept. 9th, 1921, for $345, which in•
eludes the above assessment, $66.83
interest, and 40 cents costs.
There is another special assess•
ment for the improvement of Grand
view avenue levied Sept. 17th, 1920,
$497.04; this also is affected by the
sale to the city for $553.55, which
includes $56.11 interest and 40 cents
costs.
There is also an assessment for
the improvement of Cora street lev-
ied August 15th, 1918, $23.75, also
represented by the sale to the City
Sept. 9th, 1921, at $27.35, which in-
cludes $3.20 interest and 40 cents
costs. As a matter of explanation
we wish to state, the old assess-
ments were based upon frontage of
lot, which happens to be 119 feet,
but as the lot is angular in shape
and but 39 feet wide, and at its nar-
row point about 65 feet in from the
street, it is really of less value than
what an ordinary 50x100 would have
been and the assessment greatly ex-
ceeds the regular limit of 25 per
cent value of the lot. However, to
clear up the title at this time, we
are offering $425 in full, and ask
the cancellation of the tax sale cer-
tificates in full upon payment of
sante.
Respectfully,
VOELKER REALTY CO.

February Tenth, 1923.
City Council, Dubuque, Iowa:
Gentlemen:—In accordance with
your instructions bids were received
on Thursday, February 8th, for pav-
ing the various streets for which
resolutions were previously passed.
The City of Dubuque is very for-
tunate in securing what to me seem
to be very good' prices for this work.
There were fourteen bidders all told.
There was competition between the
different types of pavement although
some of the bidders did not actually
bid to get the work but for appear-
ance sake.
The low prices last year were
$2.24 for vibrolithic, $1.35 for sheet
asphalt and $1.43 for bitulithic. The
low prices this year are $2.33 for
vibrolithic, $1.34 for sheet asphalt,
and $1.54 for bitulithic. My own
judgment is that the actual cost of
performing work this year will be
increased more above the cost of
last year, than is indicated by these
prices,
There are a number of streets
which on account of traffic con-
ditions or on account of the nature
of the macadam now in, must be
improved with either brick or vibro-
lithic paving. The cost of the
brick, generally speaking, is so much
higher than the cost of the vibro-
lithic as to practically forbid the
use of brick, as the people who pay
the assessment will feel that the
cost of vibrolithic is sufficient with-
out any additional expense. Also
as a general proposition we find
the cost of the bitulithic pavement
to be 20 per cent or more higher
than the cost of sheet asphalt. At
the same time, experience particular-
ly as shown in the Bates Test Roads
in Illinois shows that 3 inch sheet
asphalt pavement is far superior in
withstanding traffice than a 2 inch
sheet pavement. In view of these
facts my personal recommendations
will be for the awarding of all jobs
in which a soft top pavement is felt
to be the most desirable, to sheet
asphalt, as I believe the pavement
will prove in every way as satis-
factory and the cost reduction of 20
per cent from the cost of the bitu-
lithic will be no small boon to the
citizens generally.
Langworthy street from Nevada
street to College street,—bids were
received for the paving of this street
with brick only. My recommenda-
tion would be to award the contract
for this improvement and for the
city at large to assume the difference
in cost between the brick and vibro-
lithic. These grades are very steep
and a pavement to give a foothold
for horses should be put on this
street. On the other hand the abut-
ting property is not highly improved
and the cost of the brick pavement
will be in excess possibly of 25 per
cent of the value of the abuttin4
property as well as in excess of the
ability of the owners to pay.
In conclusion I feel that the citi-
zens generally should •congratulate
themselves on the low prices sub-
mitted for this work. The price as
submitted for bitulithic is still be-
low the price for which this pave-
ment was put in in 1916. At the
same time the price for sheet as-
72 ipecial Session, February 10th, 1923
phalt is 20c per yard less than the
price of bitulithic.

Dubuque, Iowa,
February 16th, 1923.
To the Honorable City Commission-
ers and City Manager.
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The undersigned
must protest against the assessments
of the following lots for the con-
struction of a sanitary sewer in Aud-
ubon Ave., as being far in excess of
the 25 per cent limit of assessments
to value of the lot. Due to the street
not being anywhore near the proper
grade the cost of the sewer was con-
siderably greater than normal and
the condition of the lots with refer-
ence to the established grade of the
street will convince you of the fact
that the lots cannot stand the assess-
ment as made. This referring par-
ticularly to the seven lots mentioned.
The assessments objected to and
the assessed values of lots are as fol-
lows:
Rosedale 35 value $20.00 assess-
ment $84.95.
Rosedale 36 value $20.00 assess-
ment $84.95.
Rosedale 37 value $20.00 assess-
ment $84.95.
Rosedale 38 value $20.00 assess-
ment $84.95.
Rosedale 39 value $20.00 assess-
ment $84.95.
Woodlawn Park 75, value $30.00
assessment $60.34.

Feb. 16th, 1923.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:
The matter of the petition of the 1
Voelker Realty Co., in regard to
special assessments as levied against �
lot 16 Grandview Heights Add,
which was referred to the City Man-
ager recently, I have investigated
and wish to make the following re-
port:
The first assessment mentioned
for the improvement of Grandview
Avenue was levied on January 4th,
1912. At this time the proper`y was
assessed for street improvements on
the frontage basis. All the property
between Dodge street and South 1
Dodge Street paid the assessment as
levied, except lots 12, 14, 16 Grand-
view Heights Add. The assessment
as levied was $123.51 each on lots 12
and 14 and $378.48 as levied against
lot 16. This large assessment on lot
16 was due to the triangular shape of
the lot, giving a frontage on Grand-
view avenue.
This property at that time belong-
ed to George Collis, and was pur-
chased by the Voelker Realty Co.
from J. J. Nagle on April 29th, 1915,
the abstract of the property at this
time shows the special assessment
as levied in 1912 remaining unpaid.
The petition of the Voelker Realty
Company is somewhat in error in
connection with the assessment levi-
ed as they state the assessment to
have been $497.04. This assessment
was later reduced to $400.00 by the
Council which would have been a
corresponding reduction from the
figures as mentioned.
My personal opinion is that the
Voelker Realty Company is entitled
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
matter be left in the hands of the
City Manager to settle as set out in
his report, seconded by Councilman
Gabriel, carried by the following
vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior,
Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Feb. 17th, 1923,
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:
Mr. W. F. Worcester, Vice Presi-
dent of the Rau Appraisal Company,
called on me Friday, February 16th,
with reference to the payment of
$2,500.00 which he claims due the
Rau Appraisal Co., for appraising the
Dubuque Electric Company property,
which was begun October, 1919, and
was completed September, 1920.
I have examined somewhat the
Council proceedings with reference
to this work. The C. B. Stiver Co.
of Des Moines first arranged t oau-
dit the Dubuque Electric Company
books which was to have been done
at a cost not to exceed $650.00. The
bill for this work has been present-
ed but has not been paid due to the
fact that no report of audit has been
submitted. The Rau Appraisal Com-
pany was engaged through the Stiv-
er Company, and the City of Dubuque
and the Dubuque Electric company
agreed to each pay one-half of the
cost of the appraisal, except that the
City of Dubuque limited her share
to $2,500.00.
On Oct. 2nd, 1919, both Mr. May-
nard of the Dubuque Electric Com-
pany and Mr. Stiver of the appraisal
company addressed the council in
connection with the appraisal. Mr.
Stiver explained that it was not ne-
cessary to get a detailed appraisal to
ascertain the value of the property.
It was on this representation that
the arrangements were made for the
appraisal.
The City advised the Stiver com-
pany this work would have to be
completed within sixty days, other-
wise the work would be of no bene-
fit and would not be acceptable. As
I understand it, the contract itself
placed no time limit. The Rau Ap-
praisal company was advised in Oc-
tober through the Stiver Co. that
Special Session,
the work should be completed in six-
ty days.
They began work about November
lst, continuing through the winter.
On the 19th of February, in reply to
a telegram from the Dubuque Daily
News, they advised that the apprais-
al would be ready about April 1st,
which was the last information re-
ceived until the books were deliver-
ed about the middle of September,
1920.
The City refused to accept them
and refused to open them, but were
finally given permission to open the
reports with the express stipulation
that the opening of the reports
would no the held by them as an
acceptance of the report.
The basis for the payment of the
Rau Appraisal Company was one-
half of one per cent of the replace-
ment value of the Dubuque Electric
Co.
The Dubuque Electric Co. has paid
on this basis $24,460. There remains
due on this basis $2,500.0u which the
City has not paid. In other words,
when the work was started it was
expected to be completed in sixty
days in order to be of service. Stiv-
er said that a detailed appraisal was
unnecessary. In spite of this a most
complete and detailed appraisal was
furnished. As an inventory of the Du-
buque Electric Co., the appraisal
might be of value to anyone desiring
such an inventory. As an appraisal
of the Company it is absolutely
worthless, as it is based upon the
costs at the very peak period.
The representative of the Apprais-
al Company suggested that they
would for the sake of a quick and
final settlement, be willing to ac-
cept a deduction of 25 per cent of
the amount, I suggested that the
City would not desire to harm her
good name and credit and did not
want any outstanding bills, and for
that reason the Council might be
willing to make some compensation
and might be willing to pay 20 per
cent of the original price in order to
get a final settlement. As further c.s-
count, the representative of the ap-
praisal company asked that I pre-
sent the matter to the City Council
and make known to them that the
Appraisal company for the sake of
getting the matter adjusted would
be willing to take 50 per cent of the
original claim.
I am presenting this matter to the
Council without recommendation.
Respectfully submitted,
0, E, CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Schrempf moved that
the matter be referred to the City
Solicitor, seconded by Councilman

Petition of the Dubuque Electric Co.
Feb. 20th, 1923..
Honorable Mayor and City Council:
Gentlemen: A little over a year
ago we extended our ten-minute ser-
vice on the West Dubuque line from
Asbury switch where it then term-
inated to the new High School. Un-
der the present scheme of operation,
therefore, the switch at Asbury is
not used and we respectfully request
permission to relocate it, prior to
the new paving, in front of the new
High school, which will not only
make it possible for us to have ex-
tra cars at the High school to meet
any unusual demand, but also we
will be able to improve our West
Locust street service.
We also ask permission to relo-
cate the switch on West Locust ap-
proximately opposite Mt. St. Joseph's
college to a new position further
east and in the approximate location
of Rosedale avenue. This change will
give us more even spacing of the
switches on our Locust street divi-
sion, which will permit better ser-
vice under normal conditions and
more flexibility when extra service
is needed.
Thanking you in advance for what
I trust will be your favorable consid-
eration of the above, I am
Yours very truly.
O. H. SIMONDS,
General Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
prayer of the petition be granted
and the Electric Co. be requested to
install, if possible, a continnuous
service instead of transferring on
Asbury street, as is done at present,

buque Electric Co., be so notified,

The Honorable Mayor and Council of
the City of Dubuque.
Gentlemen: On January 31, 1923,
Mrs. John Bohn fell at the alley on
Windsor avenue between Hennepin
and Reece street and sustained a
fracture of her left wrist. The point
where the accident occurred was ex-
amined and found to • be quite dan-
gerous by reason of the accumula-
tion of snow and ice which had ex-
isted there for some time. I have
had the matter up with Mrs. Bohn
and she agrees to accept in settle-
ment of her claim the sum of $43.00,
which is the actual doctor bill ren-
dered to her on account of said acci-
dent. As Mrs. Bohn is very reason-
able in this matter it is my opinion
the claim is justified and I recom-
mend that she be paid the sum of
$43.00 in full settlement of her claim,
and ask that a warrant be drawn in
favor of John Bohn, her husband, in
that amount.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
Solicitor.

Mayor Alderson read the call and

resolutions of necessity for the im-
provement of various streets in the
City and acting on any other bus-
iness that may properly come before

Notice of publication certified to
by the publisher that notice is here-
by given by direction of the City
Council of the City of Dubuque, that
resolutions of necessity on each of
the following improvements are pro-
posed for passage and adoption by
the said City Council on the 16th
day of March, 1923, remonstrances
presented and read. Objecting to
proposed resolution for improvement
of Washington street from llth to
20th streets signed by 64 property
owners, also a remonstrance of prop-
erty owners on Washington street
from 20th to 24th streets, signed by
7 abutters. Both petitions object to
the use of vibrolithic paving for
said street. Stating that Vibrolithic
paving is more or less of an experi-
ment. They further suggest to the
Council that the specifications pro-
viding for said improvement be re-
vised in such a way as to lower the
crown of the street, and eliminate
rock filler, which is proposed to be
put under soft top pavements. They
further suggest that it is their de-
sire that the plans and specifications
be revised as above suggested and
the street be improved with either
Bitulithic or sheet asphalt.
Councilman Brede moved that the
rules be suspended to allow anyone
present to address the Council. Sec-
onded by Councilman Gabriel. Car-
ried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior, and
Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Attorney F. Gilloon, addressed the
Council relative to the above peti-
tion, he stated further that the rea-
son the petitioners asked that the
crown of the street be lowered is
that Washington street is required to
carry considerable flood water, and
if the crown is raised to any ma-
terial extent above its present eleva-
tion, the result will be that the flood
waters will overflow the curbs into
the adjoining property and cellars.
He stated further that the reason
the petitioners ask for the eitulithic
or sheet asphalt paving is that it is
cleaner and quieter, alit] that they
are satisfied with its wearing
strength, and that they hereby ask
the Council to give careful consid-
eration to these objections and act
favorably upon then. There being
no remonstrance against any of
the other streets proposed to be im-
proved.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the notice of publication be received
and filed. Seconded by Councilman
Brede. Carried by the following

The following communication and
report of the Visiting• Nurse Asso-
ciation, presented and read.
The main sources of revenue of
the Visiting Nurses Association in
the year 1922.
City appropriation $1200.00
Metropolitan Ins. Company 1455.70
Payment by patients 362.60
Directors' Collections 1711.80
For the past ten (10) months the
nurses have made 2229 Metropolitan
visits, and 4221 Visiting Nurses As-
sociation visits.
The Visiting Nurses Association
gives advisory and educational care
from every angle that effects the
health of any member of the family,
except the school child who comes
under the care of the school nurse
for advice and health instruction.
The Metropolitan nursing service
is essentially for the acutely ill. A
chronic may not have more than six
(6) visits, and maternity case is
allowed only eight (8) for the mother
and baby. We all know that ten (10)
visits is the very least we can give
the mother, and very often are
obliged to give fourteen (14) to the
baby. In these cases, as in the tub-
erculosis cases, the work is contin-
ued by the Visiting Nurses Associ-
ation.
The Fresh Air School, and the
Fresh Air Camp, are supported by
the sale of the Health Seals at
Christmas. In our report for 1922,
the balance at the end of the year
was a little over $2600.00, practic-
ally all of which was from the seals,
so that our general fund is so de-

Gentlemen: I beg to advise that
the J. F. Lee Company has completed
Regular Session, April 2nd, 19'3
the laying of sewer and water con-
nections in each of the following
Streets and that the Key City Gas
Co. has completed the contract for
laying gas connections on each of
the following Streets:
Booth Street from Dodge Street to
Julien Avenue.
Asbury Street from Delhi to St.
Ambrose Street.
Seminary Street from St. Ambrose
Street to May Place.
The actual work of making the
connections was completed some
time ago. There is still some un-
certainty about the trenches being
properly back filled. This, however,
can now be taken care of definitely
before the assessment is actually
levied if the work is accepted at this
time. I would therefore recommend
the acceptance of the above improve-
ments.

for the improvement of one alley and
various streets, this work covering
slightly over one hundred thousand
yards of paving.
There were but five bidders. How-

indeed for improvement work, there
being real competition in both the
hard top and the soft top pavements.

J
I am submitting herewith a report
covering each of the streets on which
bids were received. This report
shows the unit price for the paving
material as bid and also the total
cost as figured in accordance with
the instruction) to bidder, namjely
the unit prices are multiplied by the
engineer's estimated quantities and
the sum of their products being tak-
en as the total cost.
My judgement is that the total
estimated cost in all cases will be
slightly in excess of the actual cost
of the performance of the work. Par-
ticularly is this true in sheet asphalt,
as the amount of binder figured, in
my judgement, is in excess of the
actual amount of binder used. Like-
wise, in all probability, the amount
of crushed rock figured is slightly in
excess of the actual amount of crush-
ed rock to be used on the work.
The city is to be congratulated on
the very favorable prices received
for both hard and soft top pave-
ments.
I would recommend that the con-
tracts for all these improvements be
awarded without further delay in or-
der that the work can be completed
in the early end of the season.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen:—
On January 9. 1923, between the
hours of 9:30 and 10:00 p. m. Frank
Fosselma.n fell at the southwest cor-
ner of White and 24th Street and
sustained a fracture of the left leg
at the ankle. The exact place where
the accident occurred is located up-
on the apron which runs from the
curb to the street. From my investi-
gation of this accident I find that the
apron was covered with snow and ice
for some time prior to the accident
and was in a more or less danger-
ous condition. Mr. Fosselman was in
216 Pegular Session, April 2nd, 1923
the hospital from January 9th to
January 23rd and was put to ex-
pense therein the sum of $74.50. His
doctor bill amounts to about $105.00.
In addition to the injury which he
sustained Mr. Fosselman was out
of work for quite a while and it ap-
pears advisable from all tha circum-
stances that this claim should be
settled. I have had a talk with Mr.
Fosselman and he has agreed to ac-
cept the sum of $200.00 in full set-
tlement for his injury. I believe this
would be a fair adjustment to make
under the circumstances. I therefor
recommend that he be paid the sum
of $200.00 in full setttlement of his
ciaim and if this is satisfactory you
will order a warrant drawn in his
favor for this amount.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Solicitor.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation and report of the
City Solicitor be approved and the
Auditor be instructed to draw a war-
rant on the Treasurer for $200.00 in
favor of Frank Fosselman, payment
in full for personal injuries received
as above stated, seconded by Coun-
cilman Gabriel, carried by the fol-
lowing vote:
Yeas—Mayor
men Brede,
Schrempf.
Nays—None.

City Council,

Gentlemen: About one month ago
the petition of Thomas H. Mahara,
requesting permission to install an
air post on the south side of Sixth
Street between Central Avenue and
the alley west of Central Avenue,
was referred to the City Manager
for investigation and report.
I beg to advise that I have investi-
gated this location and see nothing
objectionable in the installation of
an air post at this location. 1 would
therefore recommend that permission
be granted to Thomas H. Mahara to
install air posts as per his request.
Respectfully submitted,

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The petition of the
Voelker Realty Company, dated Feb-
ruary 16th, 1923, was referred to the
City Manager about six weeks ago.
I beg to advise that in company
with Mr. Louis Kolfenbach, I went
out on the street Saturday last and
would recommend that Lots 95, 96 and
100 in Woodlawn Park Addition be
given no reduction. Also that Lots
47 and 48 in Tschrigi and Schwind's
Addition be given no reduction in
assessment. Lots 35, 36, 37 and 38
in Rosedale Addition, I would recom-
mend that the assessment be re -
ducted 50 per cent. Also that the as-
sessment on the two lots, 39 in Rose-
dale Addition and 75 in Woodlawn
Park Addition be reduced to $42.48.
Also that the assessment on lots 56
and 57 Woodlawn Park Addition be
reduced from $98.10 to $68.10. Also
that the assessment on lot 27 in
Tschirgi and Schwind's Sub -division
be reduced from $106.99 to $35.00.
April 16th, 1923.

Also that the north 40 ft. of lot

be reduced $20.00 each.
Respectfully submitted,

Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Manag-
er be approved, and settlement be
made as outlined, and the City Aud-
itor be authorized to draw a warrant
on the general fund to be transfer-
red to the special assessment fund
to make up the deficiency, thus cre-
ated. Seconded by Councilman Mel -
choir. Carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Brede, Gabriel, Melchior, and

Nays—None.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The request of the
Dubuque Bill Posting Co., per Louis
Murphy for permission to erect signs
in the alley lying east of Rhomberg
Avenue and north of Hamilton Street,
was referred to the City Manager
at the last meeting of the Council.
I would recommend that permis-
sion be granted to the Dubuque Bill
Posting Co., to erect bills along Gar-
field Avenue, between Whittier
Street (formerly Third Avenue) and
Emerson Street (formerly Fourth
Avenue) and also that permission be
granted to erect signs in the alley
between Rhomberg Avenue and Gar-
field Avenue, between Emerson
Street (Fourth Avenue) and Roose-
velt Street.
I do not believe the erection of
signs in this street and this alley
will be objectionable to anyone in
the _ieighborhood. I do feel that in
view of the fact that this location
is sought by the company that an
annnnl rental should be charged in
case permission is granted.
Respectfully submitted,
0. E. Carr,
City Manager.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
the recommendation of the City Man-
ager be approved and that the prayer

A petition of owners of abutting
and adjacent property on Rose Street
objecting to the city improving said
street under the contract let to J.
Rasmussen and Sons on bids receiv-
ed February 8th, 1923 and protest-
ing against the levying of any special
assessment against their property on
231
account of said improvement for he
following reasons:
Stating that the said contract is
illegal in that Rasmussen and Sons
disqualified themselves in bidding by
attaching a condition to their pro-
posal that they be awarded not less
than 60,000 yards, when condition-
al bidding was not called for in the
notice. That Rasmussen and Sons
was not low on 60,000 yards, their
bid being $9,593.47 while that of the
Des Moines Asphalt Co. was 88,-
958.69 or $634.73 less. If the City
Council intended to consider condi-
tional bids, the public notice to con-
tractors should have been so an-
nounced. They further petition the
Council to cancel the Rasmussen &
Sons contract, (there being no lia-
bility on the part of the City) and
proceed to readvertise for bids and
give the property owners the bene-
fit of what may reasonably be ex-
pected, a reduction of not less than
10 per cent in the contract price.
They feel that they are within their
rights in making this request, that
they have tried to approach the sub-
ject from a business point of view,
and ask the Council as their rep-
resentatives to do likewise, to the
end that their interest may be pro-
tected.

Dubuque, Iowa.
City Council,
Gentlemen: At the meeting of the
City Council held on April 2nd, the
petition of Mrs. Louise Frederick, in
behalf of the DJichael Adam; Estate
for the cancellation: of the delinquent
�•:)t:r,ici assessonont as levied against
Lot 11 of Quigley's Sub. of Out Lot
709, was referred to the City Man-
ager.
I have investigated and find that
this assessment was levied on Aug-
ust 2nd, 1902, the property then be-
longing to Carrie M. Waller. Two
payments were made on this assess-
ment, leaving a balance of $31.33 un-
paid.
This property was purchased by
the City of Dubuque on account of
said delinquent special assessment.
The charges now amount to about
$44.00.
I would respectfully recommend
that Mrs. Louise Frederick be ad-
vised that the tax title will be sur-
rendered to her on the payment of
the balance of $31.33 without inter-
est.
Her criticism as made was that
her attention was not called to the
fact that there was a delinquent spec-
ial assessment against this property,
when she acquired it. Of course had
she had an abstract made covering
this property her attention would
have been called to the fact that
there was at that time 'a delinquent

City Council,

Gentlemen: I would respectfully
recommend that authority be given
to the City Manager to purchase one
trench excavator for the use of the
Water Department, at a price not to
exceed six thousand dollars.
Such a purchase will greatly facil-
itate the placing of our water mains
to be laid this year and will pay for
itself in reduced cost of laying mains
in the laying of about twelve miles
of mains.

Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: The first of the fiscal
year, the city purchased a twenty-
two foot strip from the west end of
a lot belonging to Mrs. Westaby, for
the purpose of widening Avoca
Street. It is necessary to cut this
down perhaps ten feet. It would
seem to me that it might be a very
good time now to have this work
done. This filling can be used to
bring that part of Avoca Street along
the High School property, up to
grade.
I would respectfully recommend
that authority be given to the City
Manager to receive bids for this
work.

Brown, 1301 Auburn Street.
Mr .Brown owns lot 185 in Wood -
lawn Park Add. He was assessed
for a sewer in Auburn Street last
year. The lateral, as is stated by
Mr. Brown in his letter, was to high
for him to use. He therefore had to
put in a second lateral in order tb
take care of the drainage from his
house.
He asks for a remission in the
assessment for the lateral, the as-
sessment for the lateral amounted
to $6.50.
I would recommend that a check
be drawn from the general funds of
the City of Dubuque for the amount
in favor of Crawford T. Brown.
Respectfully submitted, •

Council stating that owing to the fact
that the building' on the corner of
Sixth and Main Streets formerly oc-
cupied by him as a Clothing Store,
was declared unsafe by the Council,
he was forced out of business, that
the building still stands and is now
occupied by others, and that he did
not see that the building was over-
hauled, only by being painted, and
wanted to know if the building is
any safer now than it was when he
occupied it. The Clerk was author-
ized to notify the Chief of the Fire
Department, to inspect the building,
and report to the Council.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun-
cil of the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: On October 3, 1921,
the City of Dubuque entered into
an agreement with Charles Pfotzer
and J. H. Rhomberg relative to the
adjustment of taxes, special and reg-
ular, which were due and delinquent
upon property jointly owned by them.
The basis for the settlement was
that said Charles Pfotzer and J. H.
Rhomberg pay to the City of Du-
buque the sum of $949.95. The
amount that they actually owed at
that time was $1,136.96, but in view
of the fact that some of these taxes
had been delinquent for many years
it was deemed advisable to affect a
compromise. In my judgment the
compromise was an advantageous
one.
The amount due upon this con-
tract was to be paid on or before
December 15, 1921. On or about that
date Mr. Pfotzer and Mr. Rhomberg
paid each the sum of $100.00 and
no amount was paid since that time.
Recently I talked the matter over
with these gentlemen and suggested
that the amount which was still due
should be paid. The contract pro-
vided for interest at the rate of 6
per cent upon all unpaid balances
after December 15, 1921. On April
23rd I had a conference with :llr.
Pfotzer and Mr. Rhomberg and they
paid to me for the City the sum of
$749.95 plus the accured interest of
$66.99, making a total of $916.9.4.
This amount was in full of their
contract and I executed to them re-
ceipts for these payments. 1 bF
therefore that the resolution which
is hereto attached be passed and
adopted by you that in order that
the record may be completed with
reference to this transaction. At-
taclien hereto you will find cnec1c
covering the amount stated.
Respectiolly submitted,
M. H. CzizMk,
City Solicirm.
Resolution.
Whereas, on the 3rd day of Octo-
ber, 1921, a contract and agreement
was entered into between the City of
Dubuque and Charles Pfotzer and J.
H. I,bomberg, providing for the pay-
ment of the sum of $949.95, the same
being a compromised settlement up-
on all delinquent taxes due and ow-
ing up to the year 1920, said con-
tract providing for the interest at
the rate of 6 per cent per annum
after December 15, 1921; and
238 Special Session, April 30th, 1923 •
Whereas, said Charles Pfotzer and

Charles Pfotzer and J. H. Rhomberg
be and the same is hereby satisfied
and cancelled and all obligations
arising thereunder are dischargell.

A communication of the Dubuque
Electric Co., relative to the one-man
car system, presented, stating that
as evidenced by the operating re-
ports of their street railway depart-
ment for some time past there is a
pressing need for financial relief of
some source. That in addition to
this they find themselves confronted
with an application from their street
car employees for an increase of
wages, that they do not believe it in
their power to increase revenue by
an increase in fares, and it is simply
a question of reducing operating ex-
penses to allow an increase in the
wage scale. They feel that a consid-
erable economy may be effected by
one-man car operation and at the
same time offer the public more
satisfactory service. They feel that
the Dodge -and -Linwood, and the Ea-
gle Point lines are well adapted for
one-man operation and desire per-
mission
ermission to give the matter a fair
trial on these lines. Mr. T. E. Par-
ker, general manager, addressed the
Council on the merits of the peti-
tion. Action on this matter was de-
ferred to the next meeting of the
Council.
Louis Kuehnle addressed the Coun-
cil and submitted plans and specific-
ations asking that the Council grant
the Leader Oil Co. the privilege to
erect a gasoline filling station near
19th street and Central avenue, the
same as the one erected by the com-
pany on the corner of 8th street and
Central avenue.
Council Brede moved that the
prayer of the petition be granted.

Communication of the Dubuque
Chamber of Commerce recommend-
ing that a River and Harbor Com-
mission be appointed, stating that
the Chamber of Commerce feels that
the time is ripe to obtain a share of
the funds appropriated by the recent
River and Harbors bill of Congress
and that steps should be taken to
make sure that the money will be
set aside to improve the harbor and
river front at Dubuque. The officers
and directors of the Chamber are
convinced that Dubuque will only
get a share of this money by going
after it in a forceable manner and
believe that a River and Harbor
Commission should be appointed for
the purpose of outlining plans for
river and harbor development cover-
ing a number of years. The Council
took no action, deeming it advisable
tci leave the matter entirely in the
bands of the Chamber of Commerce.

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: At the meeting of the
Council held on April 30th. a peti-
tion of property owners asking for
a number of things in connection
with Algona street, was referred to
the City Manager.
First, the request is made that Al-
gona street he extended north to
Rosedale avenue. I think this is
most desirable and should he effect-
ed as soon as possible.
Second, the request is made that
Algona street be paved from West
14th street to Rosedale avenue.
Sewer, water and gas are now in
Algona street as far as from West
14th street to Delaware street. The
stretch from Delaware to Rosedale is
not supplied with either sewer, wa-
ter or gas. The street certainly
should be paved as soon as the ex-
tension is made and utilities are
placed on the ground. Scarcely any
real benefits will accrue from paving
Algona street until the same can be
laid through to Rosedale avenue and
Rosedale avenue is also improved to
furnish improved streets clear to the
new high school.
Third, the request is made that
the Council order the poles of the
Dubuque Electric Co. moved from
Algona street to the alley between
Algona and Auburn street. This last
request I do not feel is practical at
this time. I appreciate the fact that
th poles are more or less objection-
able. but the City must cause the
streets to be lighted and unless the
property owners wish to take care
of some other method of lighting the
street than from the arc lights which
are now supplied it would not be
244 Regular Session, May 7th, 1923
practical to move the pole line off
the street.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
No action taken.
May 5th, 1923.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: Some time ago a peti-
tion of property owners on Shiras
avenue. north of the entrance to
Eagle Point Park, was referred to
the City Manager for investigation
and report.
Since that time other property
owners have called on me to protest
against the improvement.
I have been out over the street and
feel that the improvement unques-
tionably should be made. In fact all
of the property owners want the
street improved, but do not feel like
paying for the cost of the same.
After going over the pros and cons
of the matter, I would make the fol-
lowing recommendation.
First, that the City grade the
street. Second, that they haul and
place as a Telford base for a bitum-
inous macadam pavement, the gutter
rock discarded by the contractor in
connection with other street improve-
ments this year. Third, that later
in the year, a contract be retained
for the laying of a 3 -inch bituminous
surface on the Telford base prev-
iously placed by the City.
The City has some obligation to
perform to make this street passa-
ble. The property owners are, some
of them, unable to pay for the cost
of the improvement. In handling it
this way the assessed cost will not
be over $1.00 per front foot abutting
on the street. I believe this will be
within the means of most of the
property owners and will come un-
der the 25 per cent of the actual
value of the property. I also know
that the people living beyond the
pity limits are anxious enough to
have this improvement made to aid
some of the property owners who
themselves would have difficulty in
meeting an assessment of even $1.00
per front foot.
In the above recommendation it is
expected that an 18 -foot bituminous
macadam roadway will be construct-
ed about 4 feet from the west prop-
erty line of this 4() -foot street and
that the waterway will be crowded
over to the east 14 feet of the street.
If this plan meets with the approval
of the Council. we will start work on
the grading within a few days.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
recommendation of the City Manager
be approved and the work be done
as suggested. Seconded by Council-
man Melchior. Carried by the fol-
lowing vote:

Nays—None.

City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: There have been a
large number of sewers petitioned
for in the past few months. Work
is proceeding satisfactorily on the
big proposition for supplying Eagle
Point with sewerage facilities. There
remains the necessity of securing
right-of-way over a considerable pri-
vate property, which will be done as
rapidly as possible.
The Engineer, however, has pre-
pared plans covering the following
sewer extensions:
Julien avenue district which in-
cludes Julien avenue from Wood
street to Delhi street; Stewart street
from Julien avenue to Delhi street;
Atlantic street from Julien avenue
nearly to West 14th street; Auburn
street from Delhi street nearly to
West 14th street; Auburn street
from Delhi street nearly to West
14th street; Custer street from Al-
gona street to Atlantic street.
Stafford street from Merz street
to Ries street; Pleasant street from
Stafford street to Viola street; Hen-
nepin street from Windsor avenue
down to Brecht's Lane, and from
Brecht's lane to Stafford street.
Alley between Forest Lane and
West 5th street from Glen Oak
street to the end of the alley.
West 16th street from Cornell
street . to Catherine street and in
Catherine street to West 17th street.
The above plans are completed. I
would therefore request authority to
advertise for bids for the construc-
tion of each of the above improve-
ments.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,

this work. The bids were received
on Monday, May 7th.
J. F. Lee Paving Co., quote a price
of $13.50 per ton for this work with
the exception of small patches of
five yards or less in isolated places,
on which a price of $17.50 per ton is
quoted. The mix used is to be the
same as last year.
J. Rasmussen & Sons Co. quote a
price of $17.00 per ton for work of
sufficient extent so that they will be

J. Rider Wallis et al addressed the
May 18th, 1923.
City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen: On the 9th day of De-
cember, 1895, an assessment was le-
vied for the improvement of Locust
street. The north 35 feet of City
Lot 477, owned by J. H. Shields, was
assessed for $204.56.
On December 10th, 1898, $96.76 on
the principal and $17.46 on the in-
terest was paid. This was all that
Mr. Shields felt he should have paid
for the improvement as the City as-
sessed the entire cost of the inter-
section to the four adjacent lots,
which under his contention was not
in accordance to the benefits.
This property was advertised for
sale in December, 1920, and pur-
chased by the City at an adjourned
sale. Mr. Wm. Lawther, Jr., wishes
to clear any cloud on the title to
this property and for that reason
offers to pay the sum of $50.00 as
settlement in full for the sale. His
check is now in my hands made out
in favor of the City Treasurer, for
this purchase.
Respectfully submitted,
O. E. CARR,
City Manager.
Councilman Brede moved that the
check be accepted as payment in full
for the above delinquent assessment,
and the Treasurer be so notified and
instructed to cancel the tax certif-
icate. Seconded by Councilman Mel-

ter their signatures owned by the

struction of said improvement by the

to them of the sum of $1.00 per
front foot, that they waive all the

liminary to the construction of said
improvement and the levying of an
assessment to pay therefor; and

To the City Council of the City of
Dubuque:
Gentlemen:
In 1910 a special assessment was
levied upon adjoining lots and
tracks of railways on Iowa street,
between First and Third streets in
the City, for brick paving on Iowa
street.
The various amounts of assess-
ments were subsequently changed,
and as shown by the correspondence
the I. C. R. R . Company paid
$1,341.98 in payment of the assess-
ment for the improvement adjacent
to and between tracks. It appears
that a portion of this assessment
was not cancelled in the sum of
$322.27. The treasurer has made a
demand for the payment of this as-
sessment levied March 25th, 1910.
Your petition respectfully requests
that the Treasurer •be directed
to cancel this assessment of
record. I. C. R. R. Co.
Hurd, Lenehan, Smith & Brown,
Its Attorneys.
Dated April 12th, 1923.

the petition be referred to the City
Solicitor, seconded by Councilman

City Manager and the City Council of
the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen:—
As your Health Officer, 1 desire
to call your attention to a condition
relative to the City Milk supply that
is of immediate importance.
All dairy herds supplying raw
milk at retail have, within the past
year and a half, been tuberculin
tested.
Soine few dairy herd owners have
of their own accord, applied and re-
ceived a retest, free, from the Fed-
eral agents now operating in the
community.
The findings of tubercular react-
ing dairy cows in large number in
some of these herds supplying raw
milk indicates that the former test
was unreliable or some very infecti-
ous animals were added to the test-
ed herd after the test was made.
According to Section 12 of the
Milk Ordinance enacted late in the
year 1921 it lies within the power of
the Board of Health to require that
this test be applied once each year
or oftener if they deem it necessary
for the protection of the Public
Health.
I, therefore, recommend that your
Honorable body give this matter
prompt consideration.
Very resepectfully,
Director of Health,
Field Agent U. S. P. H. S.
Councilman Gabriel moved that
Dr. Steelsmith be ordered to order
all herds furnishing raw milk to Du-
buque, be tested for tuberculosis,
seconded by Councilman Melchior,
carried by the following vote:
Yeas—Mayor Alderson, Council-
men Gabriel, Melchior, Schrempf.
Nays—None.
Absent—Councilman Brede.

Dubuque, Iowa,
Gentlemen:

There are two places which are
cracking somewhat on account of
sewer connection ditches. These will
probably have to be taken up and re-
placed later. The acceptance of the
street does not need to be held up
on this account.

Manager be approved and tje work

City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:—In accordance with
your request, on May 31st, bids were
received for the drilling of one deep
-well to add to the city's water sup-
ply. This well is figured to be drill-
ed to a depth of 1,500 feet. The
engineers prepared two sets of speci-
fications covering this well. The
specifications are a little hard to
make out inasmuch as there is con-
siderable uncertainty as to just the
nature of the ground to be encoun-
tered at that depth.
Under the first specifications the
following bids were received, the
total cost being based on the differ-
ent prices for casing and different
sizes of poles.
Sewell Well Co. St. Louis,

This bid totaled $12,555.00.
I have been talking with Mr.
Mead's office in Madison this after
noon and am advised that Mr. Meari
recommends the contract to he
awarded to Mr. C. M. Varner of Du-
buque, provided he is willing to guar-
antee the completion of a satisfact-
ory well under the condition as giv-
en in his alternate bid, as this bid
is somewhat less than the bid sub-
mitted by Peterson of Madison, Wis-
consin, and Mr. Mead has not been
able to secure satisfactory assurance
of Peterson's ability to perform the
work.

in behalf of the Dubuque Labor Con-

of the contracts for the pumping sta-
tions be deferred to give the Labor
Congress an opportunity to have a
delegation present, and state their
reasons therefore. He stated that
although James Gregory, who sub-
mitted the lowest bids, was con-
sidered fair to union labor, that one
of the contractors to whom Mr. Greg-
ory planned to sublet a portion of
the work, was unfair to union labor
in the eyes of organized labor
unions.

A communication from the Board
of Review to the City Council.
Dubuque Iowa, March 29th, 1923.
To the Honorable O. E. Carr, City
Manager, and to the Honorable
Mayor and City Council.
Gentlemen:—The Board of Review
of the City of Dubuque for the year
1923, having completed our work as
equalizers of assessments for the
purpose .of taxation, and havim;
viewed many sections of our city.
find that there is need of a revalua-
tion of the City lots and properties
in the City of Dubuque.
We rind that it some sections the
established lot value is so high, that
the assessable valuation in some in
stances is kven. i excess of an
amount the ro i y could not he
be sold for, while 'in other sections
the established lot value is so low
that almost the entire assessed val-
uation is placed upon the buildings.
We realize that since the Sommers
system was established in Dubuque,
many sections have been built up
and greatly improved, such Localities
could stand an increase in lot values.
while other localities could stand a
reduction.
We believe that a re-cstab1i,hment
of the values would tuecut a more
just and equitable taxation, giviu-
relief in some sections where needed
and increased in other sections
where values are too low.
Such a plan could be worked cul
without increasing the general as-
sessment valuation of our city and
without increasing the amount of
stoney paid to the state.
We also believe that an appraisal
company with a scientific method of
appraisal would be perhaps hest
qualified to superintend the work.
And they working in conjunction
with a representative committee
from Dubuque, could formulate a
plan and establish lot valves am!
building values which would equalize
taxable properties and place the
properties of Dubuque on an equit-
able basis.
We therefore recommend that
your Honorable Body consider a re
appraisal of the City of Dubuque,
for the purpose of taxation.
